$$$$$$$$$$$$ Use coupon code: https://outschool.com/teachers/Katreece-Mc-Grath#usNZH0qzdG for $10 off your first lesson $$$$$$$$$$$$$ Let's travel around America and learn about each state and it's history. We will learn what each state is known for and where its located on the map. We will have hands on activities and games to play to help us learn. We will be trying some yummy foods from each state and learning about special events in each state. We will not be discussing any controversial topics or events in this class as this is a lower elementary class. Learners are not required to know how to read, but knowing all letters and how they are formed is helpful for certain activities. This class is best suited for independent learners ages 7-12. If you have any questions, please send me a message. Below is a break down of the lessons each week. We review in every single class, so learners are able to come and go as needed since these lessons do not build on each other. New England (dates may change as class starts over each August).

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Middle TN State University
Hello. I have been teaching for over 20 years. I have experience teaching children from pre-k through 10th grade. I have a Bachelors Degree in Child Development and Family Studies, and a minor in Education. I have been married for 18 years. My husband and I have 3 children ages 15, 13, and 11. I currently homeschool our children, and have since my oldest started Kindergarten. I teach various classes and subjects at our local homeschool tutorial.
Since I homeschool our children, I have experience in all subject areas and learning styles. It's so important for teachers to teach subjects to all learning styles, not just one. In my classes, I use various tools and techniques to accomplish this task.
I teach various classes such as English, Phonics, Reading Comprehension, Math, Science, Social Studies, cooking, crafts, sing and learn, and much more. I look forward to having your child in class.
Just a little personal information: On June 1st, 2022 I had a kidney transplant and my amazing husband was my donor. During the summer of 2022, I have my schedule posted, but please bare with me as I navigate through many appointments. I feel better than I have felt in years. So I'm so excited to get back in the classroom. I just want my lovely students and their families to know my situation and I'm thrilled to share my story when appropriate. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks for thinking of me.
